Judas / Domine proditore in inferno damnatus (Grand Guignol Ediciones, June 2006)

Since childhood, a heavy burden has hung over Uriel and Gabriel. When the brothers lost their father they started to see disquieting apparitions, to feel an ever more urgent presence from the Beyond. In the end, destiny awaits them as they are confronted with the mission of passing on an awesome revelation to the human race.

What do you do when your heart tells you to do something you’ll later regret? Judas found himself in this quandary and ended up playing the terrible role destiny had assigned him. For centuries, he would be hated and reviled, and his name would be synonymous with insult. Because of what he did, peoples would go to war to wipe out entire races. But the time has come to acknowledge the mission he accomplished, to wipe clean his reputation and to give him back the place History has denied him.

Written before the recent discoveries about The Gospel of Judas, this novel does not merely tell what could possibly be the true story of the apostle. It is much more daring in making a claim which one day might also prove to be true…
